John Legend to Deliver Inspirational Album 'Bigger Love' on Juneteenth, Calls it His 'Best Work'

John Legend wants to see more African American coaches in the NFL. Currently, there are only two Black head coaches in the NFL. The extremely short-list includes Super Bowl Champion Mike Tomlin for the Pittsburgh Steelers and Miami Dolphins’ Brian Flores. The 2020-21 season began with only three. After the Chargers fired Anthony Lynn from his position, there are only two.

It is not news that the Kansas City Chiefs have dominated the NFL over the past two seasons with the super surge in Patrick Mahomes’ development. After winning an MVP and Super Bowl, Mahomes signed the greatest contract in American sports history.

Following Sunday night’s win in the AFC Championship, the 25-year-old quarterback is headed to a consecutive Super Bowls. While Mahomes’ skill level is beyond astronomical proportion, some of the credit for his development is a testament to the Chiefs organization and coaches.

Andy Reid is KC’s head coach and their offensive coordinator is Eric Bieniemy. Bieniemy joined the Cheifs back in 2013 as the running backs coaching before being promoted to Offensive Coordinator in 2018. Due to the Chiefs’ success, Bieniemy has drawn attention from NFL teams with head coaching vacancies.

We can tell you one thing. John Legend is an advocate for Bieniemy and took to Twitter to express it.

“Hire. Eric. Bieniemy.

The EGOT winner was adamant about his advocacy based on his punctuation placement. Bienemy has already interviewed with the Houston Texans. Based on the first one, Houston has already requested a second interview with the former NFL running back.

While Bienemy’s potential hire will only bring the number back to 3 Black NFL head coaches, it is imperative that the number continues to increase beyond that.

Kanye West Questions Kim Kardashian’s Control Over North’s Name

HonkMagazine

Kanye West is once again in the spotlight, and this time, it’s not just about his music or fashion. He recently took to Twitter to express his frustrations about something personal, why his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, holds the rights to their daughter North West’s name. He shared a legal document that outlined the trademarks associated with North’s name, asking his followers how they felt about the situation. This revelation comes amidst ongoing efforts for parents to co-parent their four children. While Kanye and Kim have tried to appear united for their kids, it’s evident there have still been unresolved tensions between them since their high-profile divorce.

At the heart of this issue isn’t just about the trademark rights but also about who has control over North’s future. Kim, who has built a successful business empire using her family name, took these legal steps to safeguard North’s name as a valuable asset. However, Kanye feels left out of this decision and worries about his father’s rights. Also, it’s worth noting that North has recently been making more public appearances, especially related to Kanye’s VULTURES project. This has led to speculation that Kim’s move to secure the trademarks could be a way of managing how North’s name is used in upcoming projects and businesses.

This situation raises important questions about parental rights and how celebrity children are raised in the public eye. Should Kanye have had a say before these trademarks were secured? Is Kim simply looking out for North’s future? Or is this just another episode in the ongoing power struggle between two of the world’s most famous stars? This is not the last time we’ll hear about Kanye and Kim’s complex relationship and their ongoing efforts to navigate co-parenting.
